Room temperature stable single - photon source
We report on the realization of a stable solid state room temperature source for single photons. It is based on the fluorescence of a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color center in a diamond nanocrystal. Antibunching has been observed in the fluorescence light under both continuous and pulsed excitation. Our source delivers 2 × 10 s−1 single-photon pulses at an excitation repetition rate of 10 MH...
متن کاملElectrically driven single-photon source at room temperature in diamond
Single-photon sources that provide non-classical light states on demand have a broad range of applications in quantum communication, quantum computing and metrology1. Singlephoton emission has been demonstrated using single atoms2, ions3, molecules4, diamond colour centres5,6 and semiconductor quantum dots7–11. Significant progress in highly efficient8,11 and entangled photons9 sources has rece...
متن کاملSingle-photon-level quantum memory at room temperature.
Room-temperature, easy-to-operate quantum memories are essential building blocks for future long distance quantum information networks operating on an intercontinental scale, because devices like quantum repeaters, based on quantum memories, will have to be deployed in potentially remote, inaccessible locations. Here we demonstrate controllable, broadband and efficient storage and retrieval of ...
متن کاملRoom-Temperature Single-photon level Memory for Polarization States
An optical quantum memory is a stationary device that is capable of storing and recreating photonic qubits with a higher fidelity than any classical device. Thus far, these two requirements have been fulfilled for polarization qubits in systems based on cold atoms and cryogenically cooled crystals. Here, we report a room-temperature memory capable of storing arbitrary polarization qubits with a...
متن کاملNonclassical photon statistics in single-molecule fluorescence at room temperature
The fluorescence of single terrylene molecules in a crystalline host is investigated at room temperature by scanning confocal optical microscopy. Photon arrival times are analyzed in terms of interphoton time distributions, second order correlation functions, and the variance of the photon number probability distribution. Antibunching at short times and bunching behavior for longer times is obs...
